I think I am in love

No not with the guy....😛


That department looks SICK.

A woman? In computer engineering? This must be one of those clown universities. Unless she's just washing the monitors, then the world will make sense again.

Seriosuly, that program looks .....it's more than I've ever dream of...fiber optics, wireless...:heart:

lol😀

So I should fit right in😉

Everyone's been putting Virgina Tech (where I was sort of slated to go by default) down lately and I figured that I'd try for a school that I like...somethign that I've always pined for GATech has been one of those.

Yea well, dream all the ****** you want, it won't get you any closer to getting in. I foresee a successful career in food service for you.

If you can make it through the first 3 years of prerequisites, then you get to start doing the fun stuff. 😛

Virginia Tech has cool toys too.

I checked it.....I meet about 2 yrs worth...cept the gpa😱

I bet...I think the people that have been bitching about it probably got rejected or something. Honestly, I've never been there (supposed to go with some friends soon), and everything I've heard in the past is good.

The company I'm working at is currently deploying in the field secure, multi-gigabit, wide bandwidth, live video & voice over IP that can support multiple users (greater than 10+, can't give you exact number of I'd have to kill you) using point-to-point, line-of-sight, and satellite uplinks all in real time.

We saw a demo about a week ago, and man, it's impressive. Nodes can come in, drop out, and is very robust in how it handles its users.

I bet🙂

Finally....a use for complex routing protocols😀

Yup, that's what I said.

The other day, a friend who recently moved to Austin was telling me "Man, at UT, people drink for fun. At Tech, we used to drink to drown out our misery." Made me LOL

I dunno why, but I thought you were much older Goose.

One of my best friends is working for this guy on his M.S., or rather for one of his post-docs. He (Laskar) is really busy and is never around, flying across the country for research proposals and such. I met him when I was a prospective grad student, and he's in charge of 20 students, wants them all to go for Ph.D. (more glory for him). I thought he was kinda an arse, not really interested in the student's personal goals.

I'm a grad student in ECE at GATech, and a lot of my friends are GT undergrads..lemme know if you have any questions. I went to Texas A&M for undergrad so I have a prospective on two top 15 engineering universities..

 

[JohnCU]

better than the department here at clemson... our senior design lab is one big pile of sh!tty 20 year old amplifiers and crappy computers.

I was in a a "daze" and just recently woke up from it..sure I'm a little older than my mates, but it's all good. Only 23.....odler than some, but younger than many🙂

now that's what I don't want🙂 I want to enjoy the last years of college..when I am not suffering in the library studying my ass off...

ehh, it's not that bad, we're using a camera to control a maze to navigate a marble from start to end, it's pretty cool, we're using real-time software also

Personally, I think it's great that you're perfectly comfortable with the fact that you're pretty much a complete douche and no one likes you. :thumbsup:

neat.

I'm technically still doing the basics....that "daze" put me back quite a bit and I still have to take dynamics this summer among other classes. Cool part is that I am considering taking two extra classes which will add an associates in mechanical to my resume😀...not sure just yet if I can afford it, and mechanical is not my field, but you never know...

Honestly, I just like engineering in general, so it might be nice to branch out in it... the classes are supposed to be really brutal though...

it's just all math, it's not really as bad as people say, but i love calculus so maybe i'm just weird. but it's really cool when it all comes together in your senior year, i'm using everything i learned from my first class to my last class.

 

[roguerower]

Virginia Tech is better 🙂

Of course what do I know, I dropped out of engineering and joined the Building Construction Department which is frickin sweet

Designing buildings and such...YAWN...building the damn things...2 thumbs WAY UP

It is great isn't it? 😀 It would be depressing if I had to concern myself with what some random nuggets on the internet -- whom by the way can't figure out how a plane on a conveyor belt will behave -- think of me.

Same thing at Duke. Plenty of people "drowning" in alkeehowl every weekend...

Right now I'm taking my last math class of my college career (unless I try and go back and take basic calc for a GPA booster) which is multivariable calc. I'm taking statics, next semester is deformable bodies, then I'm done with that. I love my program, good staff, good curriculum, and 100% job placement on graduation...oh, and it's internationally known.

Main reason I left VT engineering is that as a freshmen, the engineering classes are really really sh!tty, and i'd be doing all sorts of crap that I can do, but really don't like doing. So I took a look at BC, decided that building rather than designing would be cooler, and haven't looked back since. I'll graduate in 5 w/ a major in BC, and 2 minors, 1 in real estate, 1 in leadership.
